Does Plaxo offer anything new?
2008-04-22 19:50:00 I signed up for Plaxo a short while ago, and I have to say, I’ve been less than impressed so far. While the Plaxo platform is not necessarily bad in itself, I kind of feel like it’s just a somewhere between Facebook and LinkedIn — both of which I already use. I’ve tried to give Plaxo ...
Plaxo, Bebo acquisition rumors run amok on the Web
2008-02-14 22:51:00 "Who's going to buy Yahoo?" isn't the only big question in mergers and acquisitions this week. Over the past few days, rumors have circulated that social-networking site Bebo and contacts management site Plaxo are either in negotiations or already sold. Nobody's commenting, obviously. First, TechCrunch's Michael Arrington wrote on Tuesday that a source told him that a Bebo acquisition was "definitely happening." The company was in the process of negotiating a $1 billion sale, he said, but didn't know who the buyer was. Arrington speculated it could be Google, considering that Bebo's user base has "very little overlap" with that of Google's in-house social network, Orkut--the former has a youth-skewing base and is extremely popular in the U.K., whereas the latter is geared more toward adults and is big in Brazil and India. But with its OpenSocial developer initiative, Google seems like it would rather have influence across the entire social-networking landscape rather than c...

The Scoble scuffle: Facebook, Plaxo at odds over data portability
2008-01-03 21:27:00 A data import feature being tested by contact management site Plaxo hasn't gone over too well with social network Facebook. At least one alpha tester of the new script has had his Facebook account disabled, due to an alleged terms-of-service violation that brings to light the sticky debate over just how "open" the social Web is--and ideally should be. The controversy hit the Web when popular blogger and former Microsoft evangelist Robert Scoble--who once gained notoriety when he publicly complained that Facebook wouldn't allow his friends list to surpass 5,000 people--posted a blog entry that revealed he'd been booted from the site. Scoble, who initially just said that he'd been "working with a company to move my social graph to other places...(which) isn't allowable under Facebook's terms of service," later revealed that he'd been testing out an alpha feature for Plaxo and its relatively new Pulse social network. Scoble reported that Facebook sent him an e-mail along...

Plaxo: OpenSocial’s been the gift that keeps on giving
2007-11-19 21:56:00 Plaxo's internal numbers showing a growth in 'connections' since OpenSocial launched.(Credit: Plaxo) Plaxo, the contact management site that branched into social networking with the launch of its Pulse site in August, is already singing the praises of Google's barely launched developer platform, OpenSocial. According to John McCrea, vice president of marketing for Plaxo, Pulse has seen its "connections" multiply tenfold. The company has released an internal graph that shows the connections skyrocketing from 100,000 to over a million. Plaxo's traffic is still dwarfed by that of larger social networks like Facebook and LinkedIn (see graph). "We barely show up on ComScore or Alexa," McCrea said in reference to the popular traffic-tabulating sites. But when OpenSocial was unveiled, he said, growth sped up at a completely unexpected speed. "I've never seen a growth chart with such a sharply pronounced inflection point," he explained. "Within hours of the Google OpenSocial social...

Sree Sreenivasan 002, Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, Ne
2007-10-04 05:05:00 (Return to Part 1)BOB ANDELMAN: One of the things that most of these sites we talked about have in common is that they kind of originated out of college campuses or, at the least, they were popularized there. LinkedIn, of course, was more developed out of Palo Alto and the Silicon Valley area, but MySpace, Friendster, and Facebook all really grew out of college just as before them, Napster was a big college phenomenon. You?re on campus, Sree. I hate to say it, but what are the kids buzzing about these days? What?s coming up ahead of us?SREE SREENIVASAN: Well, my students, I hate to call them ?kids? because their average age is 27, and some of them are amazed how much we are using Facebook because, when they were in college, Facebook wasn?t there, or they just missed Facebook if they?re 23, 24. Like I said, it?s not necessarily a function of age as much as what your friends were using or if they were using anything at all. And I think on campus it would be fair to say that Facebook i...
